Bible Book OverviewsSteve Gregg
In this overview of Matthew's Gospel, Steve Gregg highlights the unique content found in the book, including stories and teachings not found elsewhere. One notable inclusion is the Sermon on the Mount, which is exclusive to Matthew's Gospel. Gregg also discusses the structure of the Gospel, which is divided into five major sections covering preparation, ministry, training, implications of the kingdom, and final confrontation with corrupt leaders. The Great Commission, where Jesus commands his disciples to spread the Gospel to all nations, is another major theme emphasized in the book.
